The Whittlesey Branch of the Royal Anglian Regiment Association Cambridgeshire have undertaken to obtain 5 Memorial Benches. This project is being led the Branch Chairman, Bob Wicks, assisted by Branch members. It is proposed that
these are installed in Whittlesey (2 No), Eastrea, Coates and Pondersbridges.
The cost have been raised from various sources including Tesco, Regimental Associations, and a donation from an anonymous local Whittlesey Company.
The Branch has also provided (separate funding) memorial roses in similar locations,
As you will known, more than most, for both these projections to happen a number of people have provided time and materials free.
I would also mention that the Branch welcomes and represents Veterans from difference Branches of the Armed Forces and all are welcome.
More details can be obtained from Bob Wicks.
